Testimonials

The A/E/C industry is a diverse mix of companies and individuals with an extensive range of needs, priorities and personalities. Few people navigate this field like Jill. Her genuine, honest, down-to-earth demeanor coupled with an unrelenting desire to take care of her clients makes her a valuable asset. She has an uncanny ability to make anyone feel at ease, which is critical to building relationships.

I’ve been working with McKibbin Consulting for a few years now. Whatever Jill tells you that she’ll get done for you and your company….you can strike it off your list….it will get done.
Jill hustles for her clients.

Karen Marshall, Principal – Keller Williams Real Estate

I’m proud to be a member of CIST.  The members provide great project leads and contacts, and they are nice people.  Jill McKibbin is wonderful. I can call her any time of the day or night (weekday or weekend), and she answers the phone.  She is the most connected person in Southwestern PA for project opportunities and key contacts.

Paul J. Messineo, Principal, – Allen & Shariff

I have worked with Jill McKibbin for three years, and would not do without her services. As a small company, we do not have the resources to connect with the multitude of prospects that Jill provides. She accelerates our ability to reach out to many kinds of prospects (whether Architect, Engineer, Real Estate Developer, or Contractor).

Jill has an amazing talent for making that first contact with a new prospect and catching their interest. She has the tenacity needed to get her clients in the door and market their strong points. People listen to Jill because she is down-to-earth and approachable. She creates the bridge for the client to have an opportunity at a level of success they may not otherwise have. I would recommend Jill to anyone who is in need of a skilled Business Development Consultant who is hands-on.

Jill is incredibly savvy, and she has opened many doors for Palone & Associates. We plan to continue to use her services to help grow and diversify our client base.
